1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the in vitro activity of omadacycline (OMC) and OMC-based combination therapy against carbapenem-resistant Methods: The broth microdilution assay assessed the in vitro susceptibility of CRKP to OMC. The checkerboard assay was performed to evaluate the activity of OMC combined with polymyxin B (PB), amikacin (AN), or meropenem (MEM) against KPC-producing (class A) CRKP strains, and OMC combined with PB, aztreonam (ATM), MEM, or AN against class B and class A plus class B CRKP strains. Synergistic effects of OMC and PB were further evaluated by time-kill assays in the KPC-producing CRKP strains. Results: Broth microdilution assays revealed a notable variation in susceptibility between KPC-producing and class B CRKP strains, with MIC50/90 of 32/32 mg/L and 0.5/8 mg/L, respectively. Although KPC-producing CRKP strains were resistant to OMC, a synergistic effect was observed in 37.5% of KPC-producing CRKP strains when OMC was combined with PB. In the nine KPC-producing CRKP strains, time-kill assays found that cell densities of six strains (66.7%) decreased by 3.61 ± 0.23 log Conclusion: OMC monotherapy is ineffective against KPC-producing CRKP strains, but OMC plus PB has a potent synergistic effect on them, suggesting that OMC plus PB is the preferred combination therapy against KPC-producing CRKP in vitro.
